notes from Richard… “I created the pen & ink artwork for two licensed 11×17 posters for the 2015 Paris Manga & SciFi show. I rarely get to post fully-inked pieces, since they more or less become a part of a finished whole. Even here, I knew it would be colored in a flat fashion later, so adjusted the inks accordingly. This one represents the actors RYOSUKE SAKAMOTO and MICHIKO MAKINO from BIOMAN. It’s 11×14 on smooth bristol board. Ms. Makino’s head is a paste-up, as the client (her representative) preferred a more innocent/smiling look to the determined, aggressive face I was working on. The posters were eventually colored and logos were added, but not by me.”
